<p>Can anyone explain how the numbers of <a href="https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/all-time/" target="_blank" title="https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/all-time/">https://thanks.rust-lang.org/rust/all-time/</a> come to be? There is <em>no way</em> I should be above eddy and greydon (both are before me on <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/graphs/contributors" target="_blank" title="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/graphs/contributors">https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/graphs/contributors</a>), just to name two.</p>

<p>Just guessing, but I think it counts all repositories in the organisation?</p>

<p><a href="https://thanks.rust-lang.org/about/" target="_blank" title="https://thanks.rust-lang.org/about/">https://thanks.rust-lang.org/about/</a> says that it counts some submodules, so probably your commits in miri get counted as well?</p>

<p>(well already in rustc, as you can see on the GH side... <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="126931">@centril</span> has more than twice as many lines as I do but with 300 commits less^^)</p>

<p>We count both commits and review approvals. The exact number is a bit questionable, but ultimately it's not meant to mean anything anyway.</p>

<p>yeah, ordering thanks lists "in no particular order" is meant to avoid exactly this issue</p>
